Guiless BobbieS, patient warders OF the

As you value bones unbroken, never lay on

For he strikes out like the lightning, ana
his soul Is full of sand,
And you wouldn't find 1t pleasant to have
your skulls trepanned;

And he'll do II since he's promised for
twelve months not to be "full."

Americas greatest slugist, John l.. Sui.
livan, allied for England on the 9th day
of Oci ber, with the avowed intention OF
making his fortune knocking the heads off
Jem smith and other English sluggers,
and casting upon himself whole green
house full OF bouquets. He says he will
knock seven kinds of stars from Charley
Mitchells eyes, and place $1,000 up for
any man In the world to stand up before
him four rounds. This is what America
has been painting for for several years.
Kilrain is making money in England, and
Sullivan has started up his menagerie and
will rake In the British gold by the bucket
fuls. Now, will some of the American
money carried off by Charley Mitchell e'
al be returned with interest.
Jake Kilrain is matched to meet Jem
Smith, the champion of England, in Dec

\ committee, consisting of Senators
Pope, Durant and Hixon, has been
appointed to investigate cases of dis
elimination on the part of the rail-
roads, as alleged by boards of trade,
shippers of freight and by the public
press. The committee ia empowered
to send for persons and papers, to ex-
anime and compel the attendance Of
witnesses, and to compel the pro-
duction of and books or papers touch
ing the question which the committee
is authorized to Investigate and report.

oboye named committee some inter-
esting and well established facts.

The territory ofMoresnet, near AK
la-Chapelle, on the boundary line be-
tween Prussia and the Netherlands,
is an Independent community, and
has the curious distinction of being
the smallest state IN the world. 1t
contains only six square kilometers,
and when originally recognized as an
independent power, had only fifty
squalid huts, the inhabitants of which
worked some zinc mines. It now,
however, has eight hundred houses
and its people are quite well-to-do.
Its administration is conducted by a
burgomaster and ten councilmen.
Each inhabitant pays six francs a
year, which keeps the schools and
roads in repair. There is NO military
service, and the standing army con-
sists of one man. who is the police
man. This is really an ideal republic,
for it has no poor and no rich.

Among the unique and original APP
plications for renewal of annual
passes the following may truly be
said to rank very high. 1t was re-
ceived by Assistant General Passen-
ger Agent Dixon, of the Milwaukee
road, yesterday, enclosing the pass
for 1886:
'Last year this was railroad pass,
And, passing sad to say,
When last year passed it came to pass,
This pass became passe."
There will be no trouble whatever
about the applicant receiving his I'D.
H." for 1887. That isn't worrying Mr..
Dixon a bit. Nevertheless, he is in
dire trouble, ana pathetically calls on
all his friends, especially among the
reporters, to help him out of his
dilemma. He conceived the brilliant
idea OF replying to the gentleman in
verse, the metre of which should cor
respond to that in the request. He
DOTTED his hat, seized his pen and
quickly wrote two lines, and then
stuck fast as Mississippi steamer on
a sand-bar The reporter left him
rolling his eyes heavenward for inspi-
ration, but it would not come. The
manuscript, incompleted, will be left
to appear in his memoirs.-St. Paul
Dispatch.

Representative Costello is great
pacifier and harmonlZer. He likes to
consult all parties concerned and
bring about compromise measures.
It's a cold day when he fails to con-
vince everybody that everything is
all right. Senator Hixon in many
respects is opposite in character. He
generally looks things over, makes
UP his mind, and those who try to
get him to modify his plan or agree to
something else, generally hear some
thing not calculated to help their
side of the question.

WiImar Argus: The Republican
legislators were elected on high
license platform. In fact it was the
only issue between the two prominent
parties in Minnesota at the last
election. The Republicans have
large majority in the legislature, and
should the lobbyists, with the aid of
the low license men already pledged,
defeat the high license measure, the
Republican principles and platforms
of the future will be looked upon as
bait for votes and promises without
foundation.

Waseca Radical: While Senator
Ward is battling against such steals
as the state oil inspection office, he
should not forget the state boiler in

worth $50, 200 per year in fees. There
is no earthly reason for such eN-
orbitant charges, and the fees should
be cut down.

WHAT LOGIC!

Mr.. George Ticknor Curtis has writ
ten letter to the News in which he in
sists upon the right of Utah to State
hood. For this graceful effort in support
OF human rights, he is, of course, vi
tuperatively sssailed by the Tribune,
which, in yesterdays issue, not only
saw fit to asssil the motives and impugn
the intelligence of the distinguished
lawyer. but describes as mastery a
communication in its columns from Mr..
Varian, the characteristics of which are
thin sophistry and a sophomore effort
at crushing irony at the expense of
poor Mr.. Curtis.
The editor says that Mr.. Curtis is
subsidized, and that this is his only rea-
son for writing; and then by way of
polishing his victim off completely says
that he is nothing but a harmless old
imbecile, anyway.
And Mr.. Varian, in the very &C.
stacy of would be sarcasm, has
something very cute to say about his
own presumptuousness in venturing
to question the opinions of such q
distinguished lawyer and pubIicist, y

THE COMING RACE.

is more than thirty years since the
schooner yacht Americas crossed the
Atlantic and captured the inter
national cup with an ease that was
almost ludicrous. This good old boat,
by the way, is to-day, not the slowest
that cruises along the eastern coast;
and taken in connection with her
genial owner and skipper, Ben Butler,
himself a relic of other days, she
attracts scarcely less attention than the
big sleeps.
During these thirty years few boats
have come over from the Tight Little
Isle, and few have come down from
Canada, to recapture the emblem of
superior seamanship, but these at
tempts have proved unavailing. 1t is
not agreeable to our cousins who rule
tho waves to have a tenth or eleventh
rate naval power hold on to the
championship with such tenacity.
This feeling has grown upon them, and
they have lately redoubled their efforts
to take the cup back to England. Two
years ago the Galatea, if not the best, at
least the second best boat of Great
Britain, was sent over to race with any
"single-sticker" the Yankees might put
against her. There was nothing in this
country that could be matched with the
Britisher, since the tendency of our
yachtsmen had been towards schooners
rather than sloops or cutters. We had
plenty of fast and large schooners. but
the conditions called for single-masted
vessel, and larger one than conld De
found in our waters. American enter
prise and ingenuity were equal to the
occasion, and the keels OF two sloops
were Immediately laid, and the vessels
pushed on to completion. The Priscilla
was built by New York parties on the
Delaware. and is an iron boat; they call
her the Iron pot" The Puritan
was built by Boston people, and is
wooden craft.
In the preliminary races for the Sc
lection of a competition, the Puritan
demonstrated herself to be the better
boat, and to her fell the honor of the
contact. She won, and won with COM
paratiYe ease. Last year the GaIatea
an inferior boat to the Genesta and to
the Irer, the English champion, was
selected for the forlorn hope, jus. why,
it is impossible to say. In the mean

time two more American sloops ap-
pesred on the scene-the atlantic, built
by the Ellsworth's, of Brooklyn, and
the Mdyfoaoer, by the designer and
builder of the Puritan. The MdyfotUer
was shown to be the superior boat of
the four and was an easy victor in the
races. Britain was now spurred TO pro-
duce something better than they had;
and the result is the Thistle. Scotch
boat, which has proven herself to be faster
than any other cutter on the other side,
including the formidable Ire1.
America has not been inactive, and q
new boat, the Volunteer, designed by
Mr.. Burgess, the builder of the
Puritan and MayfotOer, is afoat
and the best of our little feet. The
Thistle is lying in New York Harbor in
racing trim and has an excellent pros
pect of carrying the cup back to Eng
land.
The race is soon to occur, and will be
watched with more than ordinary
interest. The winning yacht must win
three races, and that number has
usually determined the contest; each
about forty miles IN length, one over
course mostly within Sandy Hook
called the Inside course" the other,
outside the Hook, on the open ocean,
one of which is triangular and the
other twenty miles to windward and
return. The distance must be covered
in less than seven hours.
The shalloWness of our coast waters
and rivers has rendered fashionable in
America the style OF boat known as the
Swimming dish" broad, and compare
lively shallow, with centre board to
be raised and lowered at will. All of our
yachts are built on this model. The
English yacht, on the other hand, is
like knife, deep and narrow.
An examination of the two types as
seen in the contesting sloop and cutter
will show that while the American boat
is fifty per cent. wider, it is thirty three
per cent. shallower than the cutter. The
contest is, therefore, one of model, as
well as of build and vancouver.
Some idea of the magnitude of those
immense "single-stickers" may be
gained from the fact that the water
lines are approximately 100 hundred
feet, and the mast and boom, about
eighty in length.
